Plea for Python 2.7 LTS

[DeaD_EyE]

If you want to have a LTS-Version of Python, then pay developers for it!

If developers and companies want to get payed than do not EOL Python 2.7.

There are a lot of good working Python 2.7 products out there that can be used without the need of core development. These products do not exist in a Python 3 version. With this, new business can start and be incubated. Which benefits the economics of the Python Community in general.

EOL Python 2.7 is killing the business so no one is gone get payed! Do not repair things that are not broken. Python 2.7 is not broken.

The EOL of Python 2.7 was right decision of the core developers. They want to focus on future and not the past.
You can still fork it and maintain the project by yourself.
Let me guess, you don't have the time and the knowledge to do this.
Then you need to pay someone. Very easy.

You can't force the core developers to a job, which they don't want to do.
